2005 Idaho Code - 59-810 — SURETIES FOR LESS THAN PENAL SUM

                                  TITLE  59
                          PUBLIC OFFICERS IN GENERAL
                                  CHAPTER 8
                            BONDS OF OFFICERS AND
                               PUBLIC EMPLOYEES
    59-810.  SURETIES FOR LESS THAN PENAL SUM. When the penal sum of any bond
required to be given amounts to more than one thousand dollars ($1,000), the
sureties may become severally liable for portions of not less than five
hundred dollars ($500) thereof, making in the aggregate at least two (2)
sureties for the whole penal sum; and if any such bond becomes forfeited, an
action may be brought thereon against all or any number of the obligors, and
judgment entered against them, either jointly or severally, as they may be
liable. The judgment must not be entered against a surety severally bonded for
a greater sum than that for which he is specially liable by the terms of the
bond. Each surety is liable to contribution to his cosureties in proportion to
the amount for which he is liable.
